Big Berk Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Heard from a good source that JJ was getting undermined by Leishman and that he's a bit poisonous for the club. Young players think they are better than they are and don't listen. I love the man so was a bit surprised by this. There's history between them - JJ made the tackle that ended Leishman's playing career. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an86 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Would be disappointing to lose Gus after such a relatively short time. Hope the rumours are shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Dick Campbell is a bigoted Sevconian and I would be quite pissed off if he was in charge of the team I support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob1885 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Would rather McPherson over Bollan or Aitken. Toss up between Jimmy C, the bunnet and Gus. Would be happy wi any from those 3. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an86 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 What is your thoughts on Gus? We finished bottom last season. Gus came in in January 2015 and had to work with the disaster that Gardner Speirs left him. He brought in a lot of players in the summmer from the juniors and we finished second this season. Seems to have a bit of an eye for a player. There's not a Queen's Park fan who wouldn't have ripped your arm off for a playoff place this season after last year. Most would have accepted a solid mid-table finish away from danger. I have nothing but good things to say about the guy and hope you appoint someone else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poet of the Macabre Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Do people get told these stories "off the record" and that's why they don't reveal their sources? Or are they just talking shite to get attention? As for the new appointment, after reading what they've done with the budget, I have very little faith they'll make a good appointment. Although why people think a new boss is imminent when they said they'd make a decision in 3-4 weeks and were awaiting applications, I have no idea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordieBoy80 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 The board have made some glaring errors but I think people are being overly harsh on them. They budgeted for making a loss of around £250k and shock, horror! We made a loss of around £250k! They can't be held accountable for the on pitch failures imo. They backed Jefferies and Potter in good faith and both of them grossly underachieved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Ok I'll entertain this trolling, why? What makes you think these guys would do a good job? All 3 have experience of managing clubs of our stature and have done well. Aitken and Bollan haven't.. Aitken is gonna cost £70k a year and I'd like somebody to tell me what Gary Bollan has done in football management to be so heavily linked with this job 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Do people get told these stories "off the record" and that's why they don't reveal their sources? Or are they just talking shite to get attention? I have highlighted the correct answer. Funny how so many people have 'sources' or how so many people seem to know people at the club or 'close to' the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordieBoy80 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Bollan took Livingston from the 3rd to the 1st in successive seasons turning them into an established First Division/Championship side when he was harshly discarded. He then took an Airdrie side who were in complete disarray when he was appointed from the bottom of the league to a whisker away from the promotion playoffs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They backed Jefferies and Potter in good faith and both of them grossly underachieved. I think people have been pretty restrained tbh. I would have understood if they'd be overly cautious and gun-shy after everything that's happened but to take such stupid decisions as budgeting for a cup run really does beggar belief. I have been happy with most of their work though and I think a majority of fans would agree with that and it's that good will that's stopping people going overboard. They couldn't have predicted the team would be so shite but they have to make sure they get the next appointment correct or we could be looking at a grim few years in this league. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I understand wanting to only count cup games as extra's but I don't think counting them is as disastrous as is being made out, as long as their are enough banked funds to cover ourselves if we don't reach the expected round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordieBoy80 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 I don't think it was unreasonable to expect one more round in the Scottish Cup tbh considering we were 2-0 up at 80 minutes. The accounts are up and there is enough banked at the minute but we can't spend what we did this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think the banked funds can't be deliberately budgeted for use anymore, about £100k(is the actual sum out there? I know it's six figures) is probably the amount we need to keep as a contingency fund for unexpected costs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Livi pissed the 3rd division that year and the 2nd division wasn't nearly as competitive then as it is now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
